Randri García, coach of Alhama CF ElPozo, finally broke his silence. Eleven days after he was accused of harassment in the workplace by five players from his own squad and sent a photo of a sexual nature to his players after the win against Valencia a month ago, Alhama’s coach appeared this Thursday in the preview of the tomorrow’s decisive game against Sevilla (Guadalentín complex, 8.30 pm). After the media storm, the coach stood in front of the journalists for the first time and was seen encouraged. “How you can see the importance of tomorrow’s game,” he joked as soon as he sat down when he saw the number of microphones he found in front of him. “Those who are in the legal department are handling the case and if necessary I will speak to them. As soon as the case is solved of course, because there is a secrecy protocol and I don’t know that protocol. I’m not a lawyer, I’m a football coach,” Randri began. Wanting to focus on sport, he spoke about Friday’s game against Sevilla and what his team needs to save themselves in the remaining four league games. But at the journalists’ insistence, he eventually referred to Nazaret Segura, the Canarian striker who has been the harshest critic of Randri’s methods since the scandal broke. “He enjoys humiliating the players. It destroyed me and took away my desire to play football,” said Segura. “The problem with women’s football is disinformation,” said Randri. “It turns out that Nazareth played with us four seasons ago. After repeated actions, which we understood were not typical of a professional footballer and in mutual agreement with her representative, the contract was terminated,” he claimed. He recalled that the Canary Islands have since gone through up to five teams, the last of which was Cádiz, where their contracts were also terminated. “He hasn’t gotten to play more than three months in a row in the same team. I think because of her record and being a player who went through three teams in one season, they no longer let you in. I think this says it all. With this kind of situation, there are people who want to benefit themselves or harm another person, in this case that’s me. If Nazareth was bad here, I don’t know why he didn’t denounce it then,’ Randri defended himself. Valencia’s photo As for the photo with sexual content that he allegedly sent to the side after Alhama defeated Valencia at Paterna’s facilities on March 27, Randri García stressed that there is a process by which the team remains on the sidelines. “I can assure you I didn’t take any pictures. I’m not in a picture and I’m not sending it. That famous photo also has no sexual content. They just use it to damage the coach’s image,’ he said, adding that there is no complaint apart from the ‘allegations on social networks’. “Everything that happened has been a hard blow, but I know that everything they accuse me of is a lie. It seems to me that there are presumed interests in destabilizing the team and I presume there is interest from other people or entities in destabilizing Alhama,” Alhama’s coach finally said, saying that he has the whole squad for the latter four games, including the five players who complained that they were “humiliated” and “treated aggravatingly” by the technician. Alhama is two points away from permanence and everyone in the club knows that the project’s survival, which has brought it to an end depends on staying in the F League.
